    2. In the Acquisition Method window in the navigation pane, click Instrument Setup > SQ.

    3. In the navigation pane, select Advanced Acquire > Chromatograms.

  2. Select the Chrom type. You can select TIC, Channel TIC, EIC, or BPC.

    • TIC - total ion chromatogram. The TIC is the overlay of all of the TICs of each scan segment. By default, there is one TIC per method for chromatograms.

    • Channel TIC - a total ion chromatogram for a single scan segment. The channels correspond with the scan segments.

    • EIC - extracted ion chromatogram.

    • BPC - base peak chromatogram.

  3. If you select EIC (extracted ion chromatogram), enter the Extracted mass (m/z). You can enter a range by using a dash. For example, you can type 300 - 350.

  4. If you select BPC (base peak chromatogram), enter the Excluded masses (m/z). You can enter a range by using a dash. For example, you can type 100 - 200. Multiple individual masses or mass ranges may be entered. Each must be separated by a ";" (semi-colon). For example, you can type 300; 400 - 500.

  5. To add another row to the table, click TB_AddRowScanSegments.jpg.

  6. To delete a row from the table, select the row and then click TB_DeleteRowScanSegments.jpg.
